Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Speed Typer at 4.7 against Typero's 3.6. Speed Typer also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (6.6K vs 5). Typero's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Typero sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Speed Typer sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Speed Typer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Speed Typer has 6.6K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 88% of Typero's written reviews are positive against 83% of Speed Typer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Typero ships an update every 3 months, Speed Typer every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on July 29, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
